Goyal, who was given the charge of the Finance Ministry temporarily recently, presented the Budget 2019-20 in absence of Jaitley, who is in New York for medical treatment.

“The budget is unquestionably pro-growth, fiscally prudent, pro-farmer, pro-poor and strengthens the purchasing power of the Indian middle class,” Jaitley said in a series of tweets.
